Hi Podge Sorry to hear of your troubles. I'd like to wish you and your family the best of luck for the future. It's awful being made redundant - been there, done that - but hopefully you'll get another job soon. Margaret

Hi Everyone We did some more checking and detective work and spoke to Renault themselves who confirmed that the match wasn't suitable so after only having the scenic for five months we changed to a 56 reg 2.0 litre diesel Kia Sportage, and whilst it's great for towing I don't personally like...

Hi An update on the car. Hubby told the garage on Friday afternoon that he wanted to hand the car back cos of the ongoing problem so imagine our surprise when I rang on Monday morning for an update to be told that the air con was fixed!! It's a miracle!!!!! Apparently it was a problem with...

Hi Other Clive Thanks for this - will give it a go. Margaret

Hi We bought the Aldi kit for our recent trip to france. Hubby tried it out a couple of times at home to get the hang of it and when we were away he got it set up in no time. Definately worth the money. Margaret

Hi All After a few years of mulling over whether or not to buy a caravan we finally took the plunge and in October last year ordered a Bailey Ranger 500/5 from the show at the NEC which we picked up in March. We had a lot of hassle getting a suitable tow car for this as we had been told a...

Hi We stayed at Yellowcraig in mid-April - me, hubby, two girls aged 8 and 4. We stayed on the hardstanding directly opposite the play area and next to the toilets and we never had any problems. We thought it was a good site and will not hesitate to go back. Margaret

Hi Tony We bought our Bailey Ranger 500/5 at the NEC last October. We got a 5% discount and didn't have to pay the delivery charge. We also got free the stabiliser, hitchlock, waste and clean water barrels, water pump, battery, spare wheel and carrier, electric cable, hoses, gas bottle and a

Hi Mairi We've got friends who regularly go to Seaview CC site in Berwick and they say it's within walking distance of Berwick itself. We've visited them once whilst on site but never actually got into Berwick - ended up taking the kids to the beach instead. It looks a nice site and me, hubby...

Hi Thanks for this - i'll definately look at the michelin site. We've been to france before but this will be the first time towing. Though with the rising diesel costs I wonder whether it'll be too expensive. Anyway, thanks again. Margaret

Hi We have a Kia Sportage and use it to tow a Bailey Ranger 500/5. We are hoping to go to Normandy in June but are worried about diesel costs. Does anyone have a similar outfit? If so what mpg do you normally get when towing on a motorway? Thanks in advance for your help. Margaret

Hi John Thanks for this - it's certainly something to think about. Margaret

Hello Everyone Thanks for your replies. It's good to know that it is an option but i think in reality we'll probably use the showers on site. Margaret

Hello All We have a new Bailey Ranger 500/5 (first caravan) and wondered if anyone could tell us how much hot water we can expect at one time, ie would there be enough to have a shower? Thanks Margaret

Hi Gary We got our first caravan two weeks ago. It took two hours to do the handover and the dealer went through absolutely everything with us. They also told us that if we weren't sure about anything we could go back before our first trip and they would go over everything again. It is a lot...
